Incognito Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Wont have finished work by then. Shame. The Everton game, maybe? I'm not Treacle, I'm from Cov., but know a lot of Nuneaton gadgies. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phil K Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Thought Stoke said they'd pay him PER GAME he played and Owen said he didn't want that No surprise. Seeing as he spends less time playing football than he does singing tenor at Albert Hall So have Stoke went back or did the Horse whisperer ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Phil K Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Apparently it IS a "Paid as you play" contract. Well done Stoke, calling the b*stards bluff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyeyzzon Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Prolly wanted to avoid injuries by going to the Thugby team. Much more peaceful in the Prem now that Barton, de Jong and the Wolves team out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Mongo Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 To be fair, it's the ultimate test for a footballer, trying to perform on a cold night at the Britannia Stadium. Now he'll get the chance every other week (injuries permitting). I'm sure he'll relish the challenge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Apparently it IS a "Paid as you play" contract. Well done Stoke, calling the b*stards bluff. Didn't Pulis recently come out with quotes to the effect that he would still get a base salary even if not playing? It's just significantly less than if he does play?

David28 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Think Stoke have done quite decent business here if it's on a pay as you play deal. Only time will tell, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reckon that's more usual than getting nowt as a basic wage, btw. Remember this coming up a while back. Irritates me the way these deals get mooted as 'pay as you play' when all it really is, is a lower wage than the player is used to with a higher appearance fee. I'd honestly be surprised if there were many, if any professional footballers who genuinely didn't get paid a penny unless they set foot on the pitch.

Pilko Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 There was that fella at Blackpool who was on £90 a week basic and he had to get John O'Shea to help him with his accomodation payments. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Even when injured you'll likely still be working (probably harder than the rest of the squad) on getting back to full fitness once it's possible. His basic wage will still be quite high I would imagine, which is fair enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
